CARE AND CLEANING...
For all porcelain enamel surfaces, regular, gentle
care is best. The recommended way to preserve the
finish, avoid scratches, and clean porcelain enamel
fixtures is to rinse them with detergent and water.
Generally, any of the light duty liquid dishwashing
detergents, such as Palmolive or Dawn, work well.
In areas where the water is hard, a heavy duty liquid
laundry detergent such as liquid Tide will work better.

Palmolive® is a registered trademark of  Colgate-Palmolive Co.

Silicone
Sealant

Apply a generous portion of silicone sealant inside line 
traced on countertop. Carefully lower sink into place 
and press down firmly. Use guidelines for proper 
positioning. Using water to dampen your finger, 
remove excess sealant for a smooth even line.  Apply 
additional sealant if necessary to provide a uniform 
bead from the rim of sink to the masking tape line as 
shown. Carefully remove tape. Dampen finger and run 
it slightly over the sealant to remove any high spots. 
Use mineral spirits to remove excess silicone from 
countertop and sink.

NOTE:  Silicone must be removed within 10 minutes
of application or a permanent residue may remain
on the surfaces.
